9. Basic C&D Protocol 9

10. Detergent – Disperses and removes organic materials from surfaces Sanitizer – Reduces bacterial population – Does not destroy or eliminate all bacteria or microorganisms USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Definitions 10

11. Antiseptic (FDA) – Kills or inhibits growth of microorganisms on skin Disinfectant (EPA) – Destroys or eliminates specific species Sterilant – Destroys all forms of microbial life USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Definitions (cont’d) 11

12. Important steps in the C&D process Perform prior to application of approved disinfectant – Improved product efficacy Three cleaning steps: – Dry cleaning – Washing – Rinsing and drying USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Cleaning 12

13. Essential to remove any gross contamination and organic material – Shovels, manure forks, brooms, brushes – Heavy equipment Dispose of all material – Minimize further spread of microorganisms Items too difficult to clean – Appraise – Dispose USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Dry Cleaning 13

14. Follows dry cleaning Wash items with detergent – Reduces number of microorganisms – Removes oil, grease, exudates Turn off electrical equipment Pre-soak areas with organic material adhered to surfaces Ensure cleaning products used are compatible with disinfectant USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Washing 14

15. Mechanical scrubbing to remove oil, grease, exudate – Deep cracks, crevices, pits, pores High pressure water and detergent – Use caution to avoid dispersal of pathogen High temperature – 90-130 o F/32-54 o C – Increases product efficacy USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Washing (cont’d) 15

16. Rinse surfaces after wash – Low pressure, cold water Inspect to ensure surfaces are visibly clean Before disinfection, allow surfaces to dry completely – Blowers, fans, compressors Avoid high pressure systems with highly infectious, zoonotic pathogens USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Rinsing and Drying 16

17. Application – After surfaces are clean, rinsed, dried – Physical or chemical Contact time – Allow adequate contact time for the disinfection process to work Rinse and dry – Thoroughly rinse after disinfection – Air dry prior to restocking animals USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Disinfection 17

18. Area remains free of animals or activity for a period of time – Allow complete drying Further reduces any remaining microbes At least 3x the longest incubation time of targeted pathogen USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Cleaning and Disinfection - Roles Downtime 18
